CLASS 1B DIAPHRAGMS
The Class 1B diaphragm has a rectangular bead around the bottom inner edge of its sidewall. This type of bead is designed to be clamped inside the cylinder bore, allowing for an absolute minimum hardware footprint. Since the clamping hardware is located inside the cylinder bore, this design is generally limited to a half-stroke in the Sb direction. This design must be inverted prior to assembly, and a curved lip retainer plate is recommended. The same recommendation of
a maximum differential pressure of 150 psi also applies to this design.
Dimensions and Tolerances
Diaphragms are shown in the “as molded” configurations. The diaphragm must be inverted prior to installation.

This “V” rib is for diaphragm processing only. It may not appear on all diaphragms. It is not functional and need not be completely filled. Rib is normally on rubber side of diaphragm.
Number, size, spacing and location of “V” ribs may be modified to suit specific beads, or may be left off altogether.
Dimensions and tolerances pertain to Bellofram Rolling Diaphragms as manufactured and not to dimensions and tolerances of mating parts.
